Best Value???

Glockaholic

Hi all! If I posted in the wrong place, I do humbly apologize. I played the game on XBox when it first came out but quit due to guild drama (long story). I'm looking to get back into the game on PC but with all the Expansions and DLC that is now available I don't know which is the best way to ensure I have all the content available at the best price. Do I purchase the Collector's Edition for 80 bucks and join ESO Plus or can I just purchase the Summerset Collector's Edition and receive the DLC through ESO Plus and save money that way? Is there another way I can receive all the content? TIA for any help that can be provided..

Purchase Summerset and subscribe to ESO + (which gives you all DLC except Chapters while you sub), since playing without a crafting bag is like knitting without hands.

This.

Yeah, Summerset + a subscription is probably the best value option.

Actually, even more value right now, because the deadline for getting the Psijic house on login is Monday (it'll be awarded midweek sometime), so, that's probably your best bet.

What actually comes with the Summerset Collector's Edition? Will I receive the mount and pet or were they pre-order items only? I wasn't aware of houses or anything like that

I think you can still buy the ‘digital collector’s’ edition of that, no? Should come with all the bells and whistles (free mount and a motif, I think).

The Psyjic pet, mount and house, are from a promotional event, tied to an in game achievement. Those, at least, won't come with any collector's edition. You just have to have summerset and login at least once before the 7th of October.

Here's a contrary view: Just buy the base game for $10 and focus on all the content it gives you and level your crafting professions, increasing your inventory, ride speed, bank space, etc.

If you get the ESO+ subscription early on, you will get addicted to the virtually unlimited bag/bank space and when your subscription lapses, you won't want to play the game any more.

After you hit CP300, the game becomes more of a grind, and THAT is when you need new content the most. If you are used to playing without ESO+ crafting bag, then you can activate your sub only when you really want to explore new content and you won't be stuck on the treadmill.

Buy the collectors edition and subscribe. With subriction you can play all the dlc free, plus you get crowns, what you can use later to buy dlc-s, if ypu dont want to subscribe anymore.

Buy the base game and the four-dlc pack.
